Dear Baby Jesus,

The defense does still give me anxiety but looking at things clearly they were 3 of 9 on 3rd down and the Pats only had the ball 25 minutes.  With a 10 minute TOP advantage and a decent showing from the defense if the offense doesn't turn the ball over 3 times we probably win by 2 scores.

I'd keep Samuel.  He might be the only WR besides Shakir than even has a slice of rapport with Allen out there.   I noticed last night they used our best hands guy, Shakir, as a punt catcher.  I know they don't want him getting blasted on punt returns.

As far as Shakir goes, does anyone else think we are hurting ourselves having someone back there just fair catching punts??? Obviously, I dont wanna see Shakir get hurt bu maybe Samuels or Moore might be better suited to try and get some yardage on the punts. Not saying they are more expendable than Shakir, but....

1) Bench Taron Johnson.

2) Get the penalties under control.

3) Somehow get the missed tackles under control. But I don't see how.

4) Use the running backs in the passing game. The Bills were the best team in the league last year at that. Now they never do it. Not one target to a running back against the Pats.

5) Play Shaq Thompson more. He is their best linebacker.

Williams has been terrible this year. He gets fooled on every play, has no feel for coverage, and makes way too many mistakes.

To be fair, Bernard, Johnson, Rapp and Benford haven't been exactly stellar either!

Bernard has had good games and he makes splash plays.

Bernard has been pushed around and out of position more this year than I can remember. Sure, he makes a great play here and there, but he has a hard time shedding someone blocking into him.

Big thing for me is that we score more than they do…

Ingram over White.  It honestly can’t be worse. 
 

Once Hairston gets up to speed (if he gets up to speed), White should be on the PS in a Poyer role. 

This is what I was going to say. People forget that Ingram has looked good in limited duty. He would also bring a more physical presence in run support. There is almost zero risk imo - White has proven (unsurprisingly) that he should never see the field at this point. The excitement when the Bills signed him was laughable. He is beyond washed unfortunately

How about a few two back formations? Cook, Johnson, and even Davis have shown to be capable pass catchers out of the backfield. Might be a nice wrinkle to throw out there a few plays a game?

[ngbills]

More jet sweep / end arounds to Knox...

[DasNootz]

Ingram over White this week.

 

Asante Samuel Jr should be in for a visit.

[JP51]

Stop turning over the ball

Tackle

 Shed blocks

a basic level of competency in the 2ndry...  Douglas or Elam anyone? 

Execute lining up and snapping the football properly

If this happens again, flop on the ground to get the damn call
